Wiki Stat Clarifications.

[Eye-fire]

I know I tend to make suggestions about adding something, changing or clarifying things on the wiki a lot, and I realize that this generates more potential work for whoever (Becca, I think?) deals with the wiki, but bear with me.

Just now I needed to be able to figure out how strong Leader/Dinobot strength is. How much someone with their strength can lift and that,(Specifically if Midnight would be able to flip Blitzwing while Springer is busy standing on top of him.) and i tried to think of any times I could think of where Optimus/Megatron or a Dinobot quantifiably displayed the limits of their strength and I couldn't due to my lack of knowledge of the series.

So I thought I'd look at the wiki and see if it had anything, and it didn't, leaving me stuck.

I know we won't ever put hard and fast limits on stats, but maybe an example of what it can and can't do would help, at least for new players who aren't familiar with the limits of the stats and thus tend to overshoot on the stats in their applications and people like me who aren't entirely sure either.

Anyway, this suggestion is probably of very little importance and with very little benefit, but i thought I might as well throw it out.

It has been noted somewhere on here that even an average strength Transformer can carry another Transformer, if that helps.

G1 Optimus Prime, who has leader strength, at one point throws a barge (as in, a huge ship) at someone.

G1 Optimus Prime and G1 Grimlock, both of whom have leader strength, working together, can hold up the Washington Monument.

Those have been my general reference points.

The answer, though, is: pretty nucking strong.

As Grimlock, in-game, he managed to hold up Skyfire while fighting the forces of inertia and skidding along a metal road.

Granted, Grimlock also punched Hook-3's crystal cage and almost broke his hand.

*coughs.* Well, with all these things, there's a certain level of plot interference, shall we say.

Yeah. Rule of Cool and what have you.
